ECODESIGN+
We offer you our web-based tool for calculating and improving the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) during the product development.
ECODESIGN+ is a web application for calculating and improving the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF). The software follows a life cycle approach and enables reliable decisions to be made early on in the product development process – even though often not all the data is known and defined yet.
Product developers in particular benefit from the extensive functions of ECODESIGN+. This includes evaluating the environmental performance of the current product design but also from similar products or variants of the product. Product developers can easily understand the environmental aspects of their product design and Ecodesign checklists within the software help to integrate improvements during the product development process.
The achieved environmental profile of a product can be seen immediately through visualization options using diagrams and contribution analyses with details down to the individual components and assemblies make ECODESIGN+ a unique tool for implementing Ecodesign in product development.
Calculate, improve and communicate your PCF
ECODESIGN+ allows product developers, designers, and technical experts to calculate, understand, compare, improve and communicate the Product Carbon Footprint of their product. It uses the comprehensive LCI database Ecoinvent and established full life cycle assessment (LCA) practices (ISO 14040/44) for its calculations.
Collaborate online
ECODESIGN+ supports team collaboration to model common parts and components. The software runs in any modern browser and access can easily be managed through user licenses.
User friendly, responsive & quick reporting
ECODESIGN+ requires no prior knowledge of environmental assessment, LCA or Ecodesign. The display of results adjusts automatically as soon as data is entered or updated to give you responsive feedback to any changes. The quick reporting function summarizes valuable information along the entire life cycle of the product to facilitate the communication of the results.
